Let it rain
It's been a bit busy recently. We had a great Easter weekend. In a nutshell:
Good Friday- Semaphore Kite Festival and a long walk on the beach
Easter Saturday- Wine tasting & lovely picnic with Emma, Mark & Jake in McLaren Vale
Easter Sunday- chocolate, more chocolate, salmon and scrambled eggs in the garden for brekkie, sofa shopping and then cinema in the evening to see Aussie film 'Hey Hey It's Esther Blueburger'
Easter Monday - lovely walk in Belair National Park, including looking around the Old Government House 'summer retreat' and servant quarters. Very grown up.
This week the big news is that it rained a few times. I woke up this morning to the sound of birds singing and rain falling! It was perfect apart from my banging head following gym drinks yesterday ($200 behind the bar is enough to tempt anyone away from our fitness regime...) followed by dinner at Sonia and Teds place in Glandore.
We've moved all of the plants into the centre of the garden to get optimum benefit from the rain. I saw a child at the hospital collecting rain in a cup! His mum said it was a real novelty for him!
Today we've been clothes shopping and I have bought my winter coat so am now set for the cold weather haha. The temperature dropped to 19c this week and it scared me! Back up in the 20s next week though so looks like I'll have to wait a while before I can wear my new coat!
As for next weekend... you may realise by now that I never talk about what we've got planned in the future - there's only so much I'll give away to the whole wide world. However, it's going to be a cracker and we can't believe that after arriving 10 months ago in a city where we knew no one and had nothing that we've ended up doing something so random yet so much fun! Watch this space... it'll make you chuckle, guaranteed.
